Abstract
The structural, shrinkage and mechanical characteristics were studied of specimens of ultra-high-molecular polyethylene (UHMPE) and polymeri zation-filled composites UHMPE-Al and UHMPE-bauxite produced by plunge r extrusion of powder material. It is shown that the dependence of the strain-stress characteristics of UHMPE and its composites on the extr usion ratio varies considerably in the presence of a filler. Mechanism s explaining the behavior of the polymer material under study are prop osed.
